Your ALAN 48 PLUS MULTI represents the state-of-the art in high-tech engineering.
Designed for the Citizen Band Mobile operation, this compact package i big in perfor:
‘mance. It's quality piece of electronic equipment, skilfully constructed withthe finest
‘components. The circuitry is ala solid-state, mounted on rugged printed circuit boards It
{is designed for many years of reliable, trouble-free performance. The nightlight buttons
allow the night use.Your ALAN 48 PLUS MULTI has a built Channel Phase-Locked Loop
synthesizer circuit
‘The PLL circuit achieves a new technique for generating all the required frequencies with
fewer crystals. The result is much tighter frequency control and superior reliability

4. “ON/OFF Volume” Control: in “ott” position your transceiver is OFF. Turn this contro!
clockwise to switch on the unit. Turn the knob clackwisea litle mare to set the audio
2level, until you get a comfortabe reception. With “PA-GB” selector set in “PA” posi-
tlon, the knob controls the audio output level
5. “Squelch” Control: for the maximum receiver sensitivity, the control must be regula-
ted exactly where the receiver background noise disappears.
6. “RF” (Radio Frequency) Gain Control it controls the reception sensitivity. To increa
se sensitivity, simply turn it clockwise. Sensitivity decreases turnin it counterclack-
wise. Low sensitivity is useful when very strong signals ae present in the band.
7. "Mic (Microphone) Gain Control”: in TX made, it controls the microphone amplifica-
tion. To get the best reuits, use the microphone and set the optimum postion for both
the distance from your mouth and for the ampitication level, asking your partner when,
the modulation comes out better.
8. “M1-M2-M3-M4" buttons: These buttons allow the storing and recalling of 4 prese-
lected channels. How to store: select the desired channel and press Mt for atleast 3
seo to store the choosen channel in the M1 memory. Repeat these steps to memorise
the other presets.
9, EMG button: Emergency channel. By pressing it the uni wil be automatically positio-
ned on CH 9 (emergency channel) The display will show “EMG It will not be possi-
bile to accidentaly change the channel
10/11. “Q. UP-Q. DOWN” buttons: To skip 10 channels up (Q, UP) or 10 channels down
(a. Down),
12. "CB/PA" Selector. In the "CB" postion, the unit operates as a transceiver. You can use
the PA (public address) function only if you connect a speaker to the PA jack. In this
case the “Volume” knob controls the amplification level
13. “ANL/OFF" Selector. n the “ANL" position it activates an automatic noise limiter for
the impulsive noises (caused by the engine of the car or other sources).
14, “Local/DX" Selector “Local” positon: to receive strong signal only."0X" position: to
receive weak signals,
15. “AM/FM"(LCR) butfon: To select AM or FM mode. if you push it along with the
SCAN" button atthe switching on of the radio, it selects the operating band, which
will be displayed. If you select a frequency band operating in FM mode only, this but-
ton enables the LCR function (Last Channel Recal)
16. “SCAN” button: with this control, you can automaticaly seek fora busy channel. Turn
the Squelch clockwise unt the background noise is no longer heard
Press the "SCAN" button: the transceiver will scan automatically ll the channels until
a carer is being received. it you push it along with the "AM/EM" button atthe swit
ching on of the radio, it selects the operating band, which will be displayed,
17. DW button: This feature allows you to scen 2 channels of your choice. When a signal
‘on the second channels picked up, the conversation on the frst is automatically inter-
3
ENGLISHrupted and the receiver switches on the second channel. The monitoring stats again
4 seconds after the carrier disappears
To activate this function, operate as follows:
a Select the desired channol through the channel selector
Press the "DW" button (OW blinks onthe display)
¢. Select the second channel
4.Push the “DW” button again: the reading DW will remain fixe,

Safety and convenience are the primary consideration for mounting any piece of mobile
‘equipment. All controls must readily avaiable to the operator without intrtering with the
‘movements necessary for safe operation ofthe veicle. Set the proper postion inthe car to
install the transceiver using the supplied supporting bracket or eventually the slide brac-
kel. Tighten the retaining screws, The fixing bracket must be close to metalic par
POWER SUPPLY
Be sure the transceiver is of. in the direct-voltage power supply. Is very important to
observe th polarity even i he unit is protected against the accidental inversion:
Red = positive pole (+)
Black = negative poe (-)
‘The same colors are present onthe battery and in the fuse box ofthe ear. Correctly con-
rect the cable terminal to the battery.
INSTALLING AN ANTENNA
1. Place the antenna as high as possible.
2. The longer the antenna, the better wil be the performance.
3. If possible, mount the antenna inthe center of whatever surface you choose,
4, Keep antenna cable away from noise sources, such as the Ignition switch, gauges, ete
5, Make sure you have a solid metal-to-metal ground connection.
6. Prevent cable damage during antenna instalation.
WARNING: To avoid damage, never operate your CB radio without connecting a proper
Antenna, A periodical control of the cable and ofthe S.W.R. Is recommended.
ENGLISHHOW TO OPERATE WITH YOUR TRANSCEIVER
1. Screw the microphone plug into the microphone jack.
2, Make sure your antenna is securely connected tothe antenna connector.
‘3, Make sure the SQUELCH control is turned fully conterclockwise.
4. Turn on the unit and adjust the volume control
5. Select your desired channel
6. To transmit, press the PTT button and speak in a normal tone of voice
7-To receive, release the PTT button.
FREQUENCY BAND SELECTION
The frequency bands must be chosen according to the country where you are going to
operate.
Procedure:
4. Switch off the unit
2. Tum it on while pushing the "AM/FM" e “SCAN" buttons atthe same time
3. Rotate the “CHANNEL” knob and select the desired frequency band (see the chart here
below)
4. To stop your selection, press the “AM/FM” button,
NOTE’: In the UK frequency band, you can select directly the EC band by pushing the
"AMMIFM' button for 2 seconds,
NOTE: If you select a frequency band which operates in FM mode only, the “AM/FM” con
trol enables the LCR function (Last Channel Recall),
